You get more bang for your buck with a latte.

Both normally contain the same amount of expresso - the difference is the cappuccino has more foamed milk than the latte. Personally prefer cappuccinos - lattes are just a bastardised American version of them really.

Try a Flat White lads - A shortened Latte, giving you the intensity of a double shot espresso but with less milk. A sit in is usually 6oz which is only a mouthful so get a take away cup at 8oz.

Correct. Cappuccino is not as dense; more foam to milk ratio whereas a Latte is just steamed milk.

It is genuinely impossible to keep up with the amount of random things you seemingly take offence to. LOL

Apologies - I was unaware that the red angry face emoji was the universal sign for irritation as opposed to offence. My bad.

Never ask for a latte in France. They get offended.

Never tried cold coffees. Can only imagine they taste awful.

LOLLOL Very good, although coffee time as a term isn't irksome as it probably refers to a pre-scheduled time, meaning the 'time' is necessary rather than a piece of superfluous jargon favoured by corporate Americans.

Expresso is an Italian motorway !!!"
 
When I was younger I couldn't pronounce cappuccino so I'd ask for an Al Pacino.
One day I got mixed up and asked for a Robert de Niro.

Called because it should be the same colour as a Capucin monk's hood, not because it is made from monkey sh*te.
